FDA Releases Mercury Levels in Seafood


Concerned about the mercury levels in your salmon? Worry more about your swordfish. At least according to this report from the FDA. The report summarizes data gathered mainly from 1990 to 2002, and presents it in a simple table.

This isn’t exactly a handy print-out card like the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s guide to sustainable seafood,, but it’s a good resource for consumers concerned about their mercury intake, especially parents who want to keep the toxic metal out of their children.
